Making Slack Install DVD from CDs


Hi guys,
I would like to make bootable Install DVD for Slackware 10.1 from 4 Install Slackware 10.1 CDs. Any suggestions?

Maybe it is more practically to use 1 DVD-RW for Slackware instillation instead of 4 CD-s.

Kencaz, you've just provided a link to Mandrake ISOs?

Kernel_Dameon, an unofficial Slackware DVD ISO is available from one of the Norwegian mirrors: ftp://ftp.slackware.no/pub/linux/ISO...ent-ISO-build/ (Get the single 10.1 ISO build, not the 'current' builds)

Or, you could build your own from the discs:

if you download the entire tree there are instructions to make cd images, it is possible to modify these procedures to make a dvd image. if I had a dvd writer I would have done it already but I can't imagine it's difficult.
